    Default micro jigs

    I casted a few micro jigs today that i had molded in silicone about 3 years ago and never poured. The ball type jig is 1/90 of an ounce with the hook (#12 vmc).
    The smaller jig is one i molded using 3 glass beads from the craft store to make the mold.
    Its 1/220 oz on a daiichi #20 hook, small is an understatement and it was a pain to pour. It took some tricky pouring to get these to flow through the tiny gate to fill the mold. I just wish i knew how to powder paint the smallest jig as is line will ony go through the eye once so any paint would be a problem, and then the jig is so small when heated its going to want to cover the hook also.
